Books published by edition ERNST so far are Sand im Wasserglas, a poetry collection by Anna Pieger, accompanied by woodcuts by the Basel-based artist Katharina Anna Wieser. It also released Der Himmel meines Bruders, a book by Ivo Knill, in which he reflects on the death of his brother, Franco Knill.
Edition ERNST was founded in spring 2024 and sees itself as the successor to its namessake, a former magazine, which focused on social issues, art, literature, and gender topics. The publisher releases texts that require courage and deserve careful attention. It creates niches for beauty, stages for poetry, and living spaces for writing. The program includes short stories, poetry, prose, as well as works where text and image engage in dialogue.
